A real head-scratcher.  I want so badly to ask who exactly according to the
Telegraph is the 'world's most successful living composer.' But I feel it
might be more fun to guess.  Anybody up for it? Is "Wolfie" a clue? Or will
I get my answer before I read my own post? A puzzlement...

Who could be taking orders from the Vatican anyhow? Probably not
an American, I'm guessing.  Somebody English? Didn't they break with
Catholocism over there a coupla hundred years ago? Henry the something'th?
Divorce? Buncha wives?

OK, OK.  My guess, FWIW: Tavener.

I Shudder to Think.
